You may get warning messages (Illustrator is NOT a generic PDF editor), but you will be able to edit because the pages are not linked.

If you Open the PDF you have the option to Import PDF pages as links for optimal performance.

What happens if you uncheck that?

A PDF can contain many things, including images, so the first thing to be aware of is that the text may not be text at all.

You may have many layers of clipping masks and groups. Look in the layers panel and open up groups and sub-groups; what do you see there when you try and select things on the page?

Did you open the PDF, or Place it in an existing document?

What can you see in the Layers panel?

What happens if you click Embed in the properties panel or control bar?
